If you live in a city, stop and look around—life might be evolving before your eyes! A new study looked at data from 192 separate studies and determined that cities are “pushing some [organisms] to evolve and even spawning new species more quickly and more often than you might think.” (Spoiler alert: this isn’t really evolution!)

By Creation Moments Recently, I took a group of 6th Grade children and their teachers around the Hummocks’ Trail as part of their homeschool co-op’s fieldtrip to the area near the Mount St. Helen volcano. It was a hot sunny day. The slopes of many of the hummocks were covered in wild strawberries. The heady scent was strong and delicious in the air! read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
The reports are in. The generation that reached adulthood after the turn of the century is turning away from organized religion. They reject labels and absolutes. What hope do we have to reach them? “I’m not gay. But I have friends who are. I’m not going to marry another guy, but I support their decision. Who am I to judge that they can’t love each other? Marriage is about two people in love. I don’t understand how you can be so unloving.” I still remember when my good friend in college unloaded this on me during LGBT week on campus

By Creation Moments As Christians, and especially as Christian parents, many of us have negative comments to make about what happens in school science lessons. In so many areas, it is often easier to criticize and break down than to build up something new. Many years ago, I came across a fascinating yet simple curriculum model idea that would be of considerable help in many Christian education situations. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world. But Christmas music and movies often neglect to mention Jesus at all, focusing more on Father Christmas or Santa Claus, sentimentality, or just “the spirit of Christmas.” Even church Christmas carols, pageants, and cantatas often fail to present an unembellished Christmas history. The Bible is our authority for faith and practice, and all of Scripture points to the majestic Son of God as the only deliverer who can save people from sin. The history of the Bible is a reliable collection of eyewitness testimonies

By Creation Moments The world’s most infamous hockey stick was probably the graph produced for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 1998. The purpose of the graph was to show how global temperatures had changed over time and what had caused these changes. Over the last millennium, the graph showed a steady but gentle increase in temperature until about 1900 when the graph showed a sharp increase. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments

By Ken Ham If you’re like most people, you probably have a difficult time coming up with a meaningful Christmas gift idea for family and friends. Well, what about giving them an experience? On his blog, my friend Dan Wooster of Camp Infinity (a unique creation STEM* camp) shared three reasons why you might want to give experiences, not things, for Christmas this year. He wrote: Research from San Francisco State University found that people who spend money on experiences, rather than things, “were happier and felt the money was better spent.” Memories last longer than things!

By kpennock On this episode of ID The Future, Robert Crowther talks with paleontologist Dr. Günter Bechly about his entry on Wikipedia which was created in 2012 and suspiciously disappeared in 2015 when he started supporting Intelligent Design. An eminent paleontologist, Bechly was curator of the State Museum of Natural History in Stuttgart, Germany and had numerous species as well as even a family named after him, a high honor in the field. Crowther and Bechly go over the specious reasons given by Wikipedia for Bechly’s deletion, revealing the ideological and authoritarian nature of some the editors at Wikipedia. Your

By Creation Moments I am a long-time fan of the BBC science fiction show Doctor Who, having watched it since the mid-1960s when the show was in black and white with no computer graphics and Daleks were upturned trash cans with sink plungers attached. One of my favorite episodes of the modern era was entitled Dinosaurs on a Spaceship. The title said it all. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
By Ken Ham “Monogamy clearly isn’t working as divorce rates are higher than they’ve ever been. It’s time to try something else.” And that something else, apparently, is polygamy, as this quote comes from the home page of Polygamy.com, a dating website for men seeking another wife or women seeking a man who is already married. And this isn’t the only dating website out there for aspiring polygamists. The website Sister Wives claims to be the largest polygamy dating site and has options for those looking for men, women, couples, or groups. A single mom who met a married man

By Creation Moments Logic can sometimes be a little difficult to follow without seeing pictures. But if we take this carefully, it should make sense. There is a type of logical sequence called a syllogism, where two premises are made, followed by a conclusion. The conclusion should be based on those premises. For example: Premise 1: If it is raining, the streets are wet. Premise 2: It is raining. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
By Ken Ham I’ve noticed a disturbing trend in the church, especially among seminary professors (who are training future pastors and theologians). This is the idea that Scripture isn’t clear without the aid of scholars—that we need professional help to even begin to understand the basic teachings of God’s Word. But God’s Word is clear! Yes, there are hard parts, but overall the message of God’s Word is clear to all, in every culture, throughout all time. That’s why our Answers in Genesis ministry theme for 2018 is “Taking back the Bible’s clarity . . . from the very first

They had a deep brown abdomen with a single yellow stripe across the middle of it. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments

By Creation Moments Evolutionists often use a language all of their own. Frequently that language involves reification. Reification is a logical fallacy whereby an abstract concept is treated as if it were something real or concrete. Evolutionists frequently refer to selection of genetic information by nature – the so-called Natural Selection. Nature is an abstract concept. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
